Hello Fellow Officials! I ran into this web site recently and have enjoyed all of your postings very much. While our "Bible" or NF Rules Book pretty much states things in black and white, there always seems to be different interpretations of different rules. That is why I believe this type of forum can only make us better officials-through our discussions. Be flexable and willing to change as you grow into and experienced referee!
Remember: "If you always do what you've always done-you will always be what you've always been."

Enough Philosophy- Here is a situation I am discussing at our association meeting tonight.

The following happened the other night in a Boys H.S. Varsity game.
Player A6 was excited about getting into the game so he just ran in, during a dead ball, without checking in at the scorer's bench. I happen to be right in front of Team A's bench when player A6 came onto the court. I realize I could have given the player a "T" but instead asked the Coach to make sure his players checked in at the scorer's table and wait to be beckoned in before coming on the court.
Note: This game was being broadcast on a local radio station and the commentators even mentioned my warning to the Team A Coach.
Later in the game, 4th quarter, with visiting Team A leading by 20pts. The Team A Coach made a wholesale change and substituted all 5 players on the floor. The only problem was none of the Subs. checked in or was beckoned in during the dead ball.
It was a nice switch if it had been a Hockey game, but since it was a H.S. Basketball game and the scorer's table were very upset, they did not get any of oth subs numbers, we had a "T" on 5 bench personnel.
My questions I will pose to our Assoc. members are these:
*How many Tech. fouls?
*How many shots for Team B?
*How many indirect Tech. fouls for Team A coach?
*How many fouls toward Bonus?
*And where do you find this in the Rules or Case Books.

Here's what my partner and I did:
*One Team Technical Foul.
*2 shots and ball at Div. line opp. scorer.
*One indirect Technical Foul for Team A coach.
*1 foul toward Team B's Bonus.
*Rule Book 10-4-2,5 Case Book similar situation pg. 75 10.5g

Any other places addressing these situations? Thanks, Dan
Sorry so long winded!!
